PSX emulator for the iPhone and iPod Touch

In part with updating my older projects with the newer firmwares for iPhone/iPod Touch such as 1.1.3 and higher, I have released psx4iphone v0.2.0 publicly.

psx4iphone is a Sony Playstation 1 emulator for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. It's a large work in progress type project. It is based on the psx4all project.

You can grab this release from the ZodTTD.com Public Installer.app repo source.

What's new in v0.2.0:

- Added support to firmwares such as 1.1.3 and 1.1.4.

- Compiled with saurik's new toolchain.

- Fixed the detection of whether frameskipping can be used during certain frames within a game.

- Improved the dynamic recompiler code.

- Moved the BIOS location to /var/(mobile or root depending on firmware)/Media/ROMs/PSX/

 

This release brings up to 50% more performance than previous releases. Though going from 25 FPS to 37 FPS isn't going to cut it, it's still an improvement. Most games are running at about 20-30 FPS it seems. I'm not quite sure why the iPhone is running psx4all slower than most handhelds of equal or lesser raw CPU power. It may be due to the way the iPhone/iPod Touch clears it's instruction cache via sys_invalidate_icache(...) or it could be due to the read speed of the ISO's. Maybe both. Either way more work has to be done to see whats bottlenecking the iPhone and this application.

TG16 / PCE emulator

2008/04/01 1.42 released

 

- Some overall processing speeds were sped up (The optimization option of the development compiler was changed). Especially, processing might have lightened in some measure on the personal computer environment with a not high spec.

- It corresponded to software that had changed the width of each line of the screen display. In Chapter-4 of "Yami no Ketsuzoku", the message came to be displayed correctly.

- Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.

Amstrad CPC emulator

This author has the annoying habit of using the same version number for bug fixed releases.

- 31.03.2008 (v1.90) : The past release was made in a hurry and

it lacked features still in development, hence this rerelease. On one

hand, LPTCPC and LPTPC can send and receive extended disc images: many

copy protections work fine; on the other hand, the FDC reading commands

have been improved too ("Arkanoid", "Gremlins 2", Epyx's "World Games",

etc.)
